A Lodge Built Around Art
Precision Lodge was created by owner Johney Engle, a craftsman and artist whose work centers around stone, design, and custom fabrication. Johney opened his stone fabrication business in 1985 and eventually incorporated his craftsmanship into the home and lodge.
Custom granite kitchens, stone walls, unusual rock formations, and three-dimensional artwork give the property its distinctive personality. Artwork by the late Skylar Engle is also displayed throughout the property.
If you appreciate creative spaces, craftsmanship, and places that feel different from a typical hotel or vacation rental, Precision Lodge offers an experience you won't find just anywhere.
Alaska Adventures
The property manager, Kelli, is part owner of Alaska Travel Adventures and offers Precision Lodge guests a 10% discount on eligible tours. Tours operate May through September in Juneau, Ketchikan, Skagway, and Sitka and include whale watching, salmon bakes, river rafting, kayaking, canoeing, boat tours, hiking, gold panning, Mendenhall Glacier tours, jeep tours, and more. Ask Kelli for details.
Please note that Precision Lodge is not a downtown property. It is located in the Auke Bay/Back Loop area, making it a better fit for guests who want access to outdoor recreation and a quieter local setting rather than a downtown location.
